“The Art of Bet Sizing” requires mastery of a few simple formulas, and SplitSuit’s Poker Math Workbook will help you practice with them between sessions: https://www.splitsuit.com/poker-preflop-math-workbook
The Art of Bet Sizing is a complete guide to bet sizing in no limit Texas Hold’em. This concept video covers both preflop and postflop bet sizing, along with a big look at the fundamental reasons for betting in poker. The aim is to help you sculpt bet sizes that are more +EV and will increase your winrate over the long run.
The preflop bet sizing section looks at; open-raise sizing from various positions, optimal 3bet sizes, and the basics of good 4bet sizing. This preflop betting strategy guide also covers topics like inelastic ranges and SPR.
The postflop bet sizing section includes advice on optimal bet sizing for the flop, turn and river. In this part SplitSuit talks about specific topics like; cbetting, reasons for betting (again), and balance. If you aren’t sure if you should balance your ranges, watch this free video too: https://youtu.be/-EBihWkKVPE
The final part of the training video covers two extra bet sizing concepts of betting for the future and small bet sizes.

Has anyone experimented with applying psychological pricing to poker bet sizing? If I'm planning to make a $60 bet as a value bet, would betting $55 instead generate enough additional calls over the long run to offset the slightly smaller value sizing?
What are you doing on that river if you think he has an ace?
Left out of the reasons for betting: "It was my turn."
Great video! Thanks 🙂
Every situation is different. Pot stacks, board texture, pot, cards, ranges, opponent types. Is there any data that delineates what bet size induces folds or calls on different streets with differing variables?
Is this gto??
good content, very helpful stuff, well thought out
i literally cant watch this with all the 'SSSSSSSS' sounds that hes making, my ears loveing hurt i cannot do it!
Most takeaways are obvious: optimize to maximize your value. But isn't finding out "what works" the actual problem? How can you achieve any confident feeling what slight differences work against a specific opponent, given the variety of contexts you base your conclusions on? How could you reasonably establish such a confident expectation calling/folding rate without having tons of prior information? Or in other words, how do we confidently establish a player's elasticity?
In 2020 you don`t 3-bet for value anymore, you 3-bet to get rid of limpers….THEN if you are lucky to thin out the field you bet for value. I disagree with you on sizing. Especially in low-stakes games you HAVE to adjust your sizing according to what you want to accomplish.
